Hi Whatismoo , could you please make a video explaining how political commissars function in communist nations and how Russia's imitation of a Military Political Department impacts their performance in the war?
it's coming some time after the Ukraine guide, which is slowly trundling along because I'm quite busy. This is, after all, a side project in my (precious little) spare time
This is a truly excellent video, enough context is given for everything to be clear without becoming an history video, the explanations are clear and concise, this is your best one up to now I think. I would have just liked a bit more focus on the doctrines and how air defense as a concept was used by Soviet strategists. All in all thank you a lot for your hard work
@@WhatismooI've been subjected to training videos And safety videos since the mid-1990s in both the military and for companies I've worked for. I always giggle at that that '80s and early '90s vintage corporate training music as I like to call it, with electronic handclaps and perfect synthscapes. And the chipper beat makes shimmy in my seat and kick my feet around. Thank you very much sir
curious - you are or were in grad school? what are you studying? is it related to cold war history? I'm a fanatic about CW and play the Combat Mission Cold War game

@Randohandle55748 I could. Slightly busy with other projects right now but it's on the list at some point
Love the intro!
THE BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT ONE COULD ASK FOR
Good to see this back, I was looking for it the other day lol
Just found your channel, great stuff! I wanted to make a guide series like this, but I doubt I could reach this quality
That 152mm gun is full-on cruiser-grade. I love it.
What a perfect way to spend Christmas. I couldn't possibly think of a better way to spend it................excellent video as usual though.
The king returns, any moo video is an instant classic.
This is fantastic! Thanks. The best for you in 2022!!
Amazing everything was perfect in this video
Just discovered your channel and this is absolutely outstanding stuff. This channel should have another 3 zeros to the sub count
Glad to see your uploaded. High quality and in-depth. Thank you for your time put into these videos.
Happy Christmas, hope you're doing well.
Omg! I thought you were gone for good. I'm so glad to see another video.
Best xmas present ever! I've been waiting for this for ages!
HE'S BACK
thanks for you great work, any news about part 4?
the debt is just amazing this was a lot of work!
it's coming some time after the Ukraine guide, which is slowly trundling along because I'm quite busy. This is, after all, a side project in my (precious little) spare time
im happy i found this channel
SA-1 wow what a primtive, massive system! two rotating swimming pool sized dishes
A shame about that copyright claim, such bullshit. Informative as always though and ever pleasant to watch/listen to.
This is a truly excellent video, enough context is given for everything to be clear without becoming an history video, the explanations are clear and concise, this is your best one up to now I think. I would have just liked a bit more focus on the doctrines and how air defense as a concept was used by Soviet strategists. All in all thank you a lot for your hard work
I plan to do a video series on Soviet Military Art at some point, this is mostly a spotting guide.
@@Whatismoo looking forward to that
my god who wrote this music? the same genius who wrote the "M2 Bradley" theme? keyboard synthscapes! get up and dance!
@@decimated550 yeah that's half the joke
@@WhatismooI've been subjected to training videos And safety videos since the mid-1990s in both the military and for companies I've worked for.

Aw man, I thought this was a part 4…
Not yet, the Ukraine situation/guide has been taking up my time
Soviets: how much AA defence? YES.
DO THE POST SOVIET MODIFICATION VIDEO
